Everybody deserves a space at the table.
Everybody.
If you're worried that your space will be taken, worry about why that worries you, and remember: We don't want to replace you, we want to join you.

Just make a bigger f*cking table.

I love #booksky news.
Perhaps one day I'll have some of my own to share.

I don't want to say writing this book took awhile, but the actor I had in mind to play the lead is now old enough to play the mother of the lead.

I have many regrets about Earth, but making humans in a wide range of colors, shapes, and temperaments is not one of them.
Celebrate thy diversity.
Love each other.

#WritingCommunity loves that feeling.
TFW you can see the light at the end of your story, that moment when all the loose ends, including the ones you created on accident, are gonna tie themselves right on up.

In my writing, I display my fondness for alliteration. I wrote a tale where some supernatural stuff happens in a place called Fibonacci Forest.

Without having read the story, what do YOU think happens in Fibonacci forest?

When you saw only one footprint, then one more footprint, followed by a set of footprints in the sand, it was then I was hopping on the beach to teach you the Fibonacci sequence

The newspaper wants to run a story about a popular drink that's killing some of the people drinking it.
On the way to the printing press, they dropped all the typeset and the only letters to be recovered are OTPXINC.

Going through some of the previous drafts of my MG novella.
I have one draft that I retitled "BEFORE THE PURGE" because it right before drastic rewrites. The deleted scenes are fun to read, and might be useful in future books in the series.

(Series? Yes. I dream big. So should we all.)

If a writer describes something as "indescribable," isn't that kind of like, cheating? 😅

My characters laugh a lot. I'm okay with that. I type "laugh" a lot in my manuscript because the synonyms aren't much better.
Chuckle? Reminds me of gummy candy.
Chortle? Sounds like phlegm is involved.
Snicker? The candy thing again.
Titter? Boobies!
Snigger? Hard pass. Obviously.

#WritingCommunity be like:

BRAIN: Got a great line for a story that you haven't even outlined yet.

ME: I'll remember it and write it down later.

BRAIN: You will not remember it.

ME: It'll be fine.

BRAIN: (sighs) you're right. Go on and sleep. They can just give the Peabody to someone else.

Somebody said the sequel to the thriller flick 𝘚𝘦7𝘦𝘯 would be titled 𝘌𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵.

C'mon, son. It would be 𝘌𝘪8𝘩𝘵.

We don't half-ass #dadjokes around here.
